Not very surprise by the overwhelming response,
Panerai seems to be completely smashed by the votes...

Thanks guys for the votes and opinions.

I will come back in the next few days showing what's the decision made.


Cheers

Hi guys,

I've Found the chance to try both on wrist.
Sorry for the mobile phone bad photos.
















And...............


















I went for the expected. fully agree there's no contest for Panerai....



The stock managed to arrive just in time to accompany my Lunar New Year celebration during the next few days.

Absolutely love the black Matt dial with orange touch and the gold rotor in the display back...

Thanks guys for all the previous responses.

Wishing everyone celebrating Lunar New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai with good health and prosperity in the year of the horse!

Cheers

HUGE CONGRATS!!!

i am such a fan of this watch. enjoy!

just to say, the 508 looked really good on you. don't let the enthusiasm for AP on this board take away from that watch. it's awesome in its own right, just not comparable to your incredible new watch.

Thanks guys for the kind comments.

I only have a 6.6inch wrist and 42mm sure feel a better fit after owning the the 44mm novelty for the past 10 months.

cheers

Just from those pix.

The AP look like a Swatch.

I like the Panerai.

I'll go against the majority here and vote PAM. The orange details of the diver really don't work for me.
